Long-term storage of replacement turbochargers or spare parts
The turbochargers or cartridge groups will be prepared for long-term storage if requested in
the purchase order. The package is equipped with a hygrometer (see illustration).
Fig. 3: Package with hygrometer
Every 6 months, the following measures are required:
u
Check the hygrometer (02) in the sight-glass. There is an opening (01) in the wooden
crate to enable you to perform this check. If the 70% indicator field has changed colour,
the maximum admissible atmospheric humidity has been exceeded. In this case, the tur-
bocharger or cartridge group must be checked and repackaged by an ABB Turbocharging
Service Station.
u
Check the package for damage. If the package is damaged, the turbocharger or cartridge
group must be checked and repackaged by an ABB Turbocharging Service Station.
After every 3 years, the following steps must be carried out by an ABB Turbocharging Service
Station:
¡
Checking the component
¡
Replacing the desiccant
¡
Repackaging the component.
NOTICE
Replacement components which are ready for operation
If the 70% field of the hygrometer (02) has not changed colour and the pack-
age is not damaged, the replacement turbocharger or replacement cartridge
group can be put into operation without previously having been checked by
an ABB Turbocharging Service Station.
Unpackaging replacement turbochargers or spare parts
Once the material has been unpackaged from the VCI package, the corrosion protection is
no longer effective.
To prevent condensation, the temperature of the package contents must be the same as the
ambient temperature.
